"Dear
children, with motherly love and motherly patience anew I call you to live
according to my Son – to spread His peace and His love – so that, as my
apostles, you may accept God's truth with all your heart and pray for the Holy
Spirit to guide you. Then you will be able to faithfully serve my Son, and show
His love to others with your life. According to the love of my Son and my love,
as a mother, I strive to bring all of my strayed children into my motherly
embrace and to show them the way of faith. My children, help me in my motherly
battle and pray with me that sinners may become aware of their sins and repent
sincerely. Pray also for those whom my Son has chosen and consecrated in His
name. Thank you." (December 2, 2012 Mirjana)

Our Lady
continues to call on us to "get our act together!" She is patient, but
persistent! We need to live according to Her Son, to be Her apostles, to accept
God's truth with all our hearts and to pray to the Holy Spirit for guidance. We
need to do these things so that we will actually be living examples of Jesus'
love for others. She needs us to carry the love of Her Son to our families,
neighbors, cities, work places, and parishes! That is what She needs from
us.

She also needs
us to shape up, because She needs our prayer power for the sake of sinners. She
needs intercession so that the conversion graces She desires to pour out on them
will be won. And She is the master at conversion graces. I want to share the
accounts of two dramatic conversion stories that we have aired on "Fruit of
Medjugorje" last fall. In both cases, the person did not want to be in
Medjugorje, did not think they needed to change, and were not open to Our Lady's
presence in Medjugorje. But through the graces won by Our Lady's apostles, and
the witness of Vicka, they both were given the illumination of conscience, in a
moment, and were forever changed!

Barry
MacCarthy from Ireland - June 1990 (Barry and his wife Ann went to Croatia for a
vacation and just took a quick side trip to Medjugorje...)

“When I
arrived in Medjugorje, I wasn't impressed with the place...But Ann said that
since we were here, we might as well go to the place of the first apparitions.
And so, just to make her happy, we got a taxi to Podbrdo. And the taxi stopped
outside this house. I didn't know where we were, but as soon as I got out of the
taxi, I looked and I saw this girl standing in the courtyard with an old woman.
And I knew who she was. I knew her name, even. I said, ‘Ann, quick, there is
Vicka.’ To this day I don't know how I knew her. I ran up to her garden and I
was just spellbound looking at her. I was mesmerized by her. The best way to
describe her was that she didn't seem human; she was like an angel. There was
this presence about her. So she came over, and she laid hands on me and prayed
over me, and just like that – in an instant, my whole life flashed in front of
me. Everything I had done wrong, the way I was living, it all just flashed by
me, and I just knew from that instant on that I had to change my life. And we
went up Apparition Hill and I got to the top and I just cried. I sat there for
maybe an hour or so, I don't know, but I just sat there and I cried. I cried
like a baby. I got rid of all this rubbish, this garbage I was carrying. I felt
this peace, a peace I had never known before....I only spent three hours in
Medjugorje and it changed my whole life, thank God. I don't know where I would
be if I hadn't come at this stage of my life.” ("Fruit of Medjugorje," Episode 6
at www.marytv.tv )

Joanne
Ronallo- June 1989 - (Joanne went to Medjugorje with a youth group, not
believing in the apparitions. She arrived in the middle of the night and the
next morning...)

“I got up out
of bed and went outside and said, ‘Oh my gosh, this town is so remote, so dusty.
I don't want to be here.’ So I'm thinking in my head, as we are walking through
Biakovici, and the chickens are running in front of us, ‘I'm going to get out of
this town, and wait for the group in Rome. I'll do some sightseeing, whatever!’
So I ran into the group leader and he said, ‘This is Vicka's house; the group is
down at Ivan's and will be up soon.’ At this time the visionaries would talk in
front of their homes. So I said, ‘I'll just wait here at Vicka's for you.’ So I
got in her little courtyard and then the kids came, and then Vicka came down.
She started her talk, and we looked at each other, right in the eye, and all of
a sudden I had an illumination, and I could see everything I ever did right in
my life, and everything I ever did wrong. And there was no justification, no
‘Well, I picked this flower...’ No, I just knew...Dear Lord, I'm going to hell!
And it was such a...not even a fear...such a disappointment that I had hurt
Jesus so much...that He was real, and He was ready there with His mercy...and
His love, and I was just like Ivan – I wanted to run!!! So I did, I
bolted out of the area, started running down the street in Biakovici, and where
are you going to go??? There was nowhere else to go, so I sat down on a stone
wall and started to cry and cry and cry. The kids said, ‘What's wrong with you?’
So I just said, ‘I have to go to Confession.’ I hadn't been to Confession in 20
years. I had lived in Aspen Colorado, hung with the Eagles, did sex, drugs and
rock and roll... Two hours we spent [in Confession], and we went through
everything...I felt so refreshed. (Fruit of Medjugorje, Episode 39 at
www.marytv.tv )

Both Joanne
and Barry came to Medjugorje expecting nothing, and left having received
everything – conversion, faith, forgiveness, joy, hope, and love!! All
because of the intercession of Our Lady and Her apostles who won the graces, and
the witness of Vicka who carries the life of Jesus in her. This is Our Lady's
battle plan for the world! She wants us to help Her obtain conversion graces for
all of Her lost children. This is a great task given to us!
Wow!www.marytv.tv

Our Lady's Monthly Message From Medjugorje to Marija

Dear children! Also today I am calling all of you to prayer. You cannot live without prayer, because prayer is a chain which brings you closer to God. Therefore, little children, in humility of heart return to God and to His commandments so that with all of your heart you are able to say: as it is in Heaven so may it be on earth. You, little children, are free to, in freedom, decide for God or against Him. See where Satan wants to pull you into sin and slavery. Therefore, little children, return to my heart so that I can lead you to my Son Jesus who is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Thank you for having responded to my call.

Our Lady's 2nd of the month, Monthly Message To Mirjana

Dear children, I have called you and am calling you anew to come to know my Son, to come to know the truth. I am with you and am praying for you to succeed. My children, you must pray much in order to have all the more love and patience; to know how to endure sacrifice and to be poor in spirit. Through the Holy Spirit, my Son is always with you. His Church is born in every heart that comes to know Him. Pray that you can come to know my Son; pray that your soul may be one with Him. That is the prayer and the love which draws others and makes you my apostles. I am looking at you with love, with a motherly love. I know you; I know your pain and sorrows, because I also suffered in silence. My faith gave me love and hope. I repeat, the Resurrection of my Son and my Assumption into Heaven is hope and love for you. Therefore, my children, pray to come to know the truth; to have firm faith which will lead your heart and which will transform your pain and sufferings into love and hope. Thank you.

Pray for Priests

ADOPT A PRIEST IN PRAYER

Could you find in your heart to adopt a priest and pray for him daily?

In a letter Benedict XVI expressed his satisfaction for the campaign for Eucharistic adoration and spiritual "maternity" for the sanctification of the world's priests. The campaign calls especially for "women consecrated" to spiritually adopt priests to help them, through their self-offering, prayer, and penance. It is hoped that through this initiative there will rise up to God from every corner of the earth an incessant prayer of adoration, thanksgiving, praise, supplication and reparation, so as to give rise to a sufficient number of holy vocations to the priesthood.

Prayer for Priests

Lord Jesus, present in the Most Blessed Sacrament, and living perpetually among us through Your Priests, grant that the words of Your Priests may be only Your words, that their gestures be only Your gestures, and that their lives be a true reflection of Your life. Grant that they may be men who speak to God on behalf of His people, and speak to His people of God. Grant that they be courageous in service, serving the Church as she asks to be served. Grant that they may be men who witness to eternity in our time, traveling on the paths of history in Your steps, and doing good for all. Grant that they may be faithful to their commitments, zealous in their vocation and mission, clear mirrors of their own identity, and living the joy of the gift they have received. We pray that Your Holy Mother, Mary, present throughout Your life, may be ever present in the life of Your Priests. Amen.

LIFE IN THE SPIRIT SEMINARSare also available in English and Spanish to anyone who wishes to attend. All are invited to come and join us for an evening of prayer, witnessing and healing, beginning with the celebration of the Holy Mass.
